Community Outreach
Han Knakst Tsitxw Society Outreach program provides a drop-in for men and women once per week and a Co-ed drop-in twice a week. The Drop In Centre has been closed since the start of the Covid-19 Pandemic, then due to the Lytton Fire we lost the facility to have Drop In. We are actively looking for a Drop In Centre facility for the future.
The main goal of the Reaching out Drop In Center is to provide awareness and promote the prevention of violence and abuse in our families, communities and relationships.
Men’s Drop-in
every Monday from 10 am – 2 pm
The drop-in is open to all men that are 19 years and older. Men are welcome to come have some coffee, chat with service providers and friends, and watch some TV or just to sit down and relax. It is a very relaxed environment in which the men are free to look through some of our clothing donations, or build healthy connections in a safe, abuse-free environment.
We have the Men’s Drop-in to promote a healthy environment in which men can socialize with each other. During the Men’s Drop-in there is a facilitator who is onsite to have an one-on-one discussion if needed.

Clothing Donations
The Transition house receives a lot of clothing donations in which we are very grateful for. We like to bring what we have to the drop-in every once in a while and let people go through what there is and take what they need.
If you are ever in need, do not hesitate to give us a call as we may save something; we can put aside items for you and you can rest assure that your requests will remain confidential.
Please, if you wish to donate your gently used clothing and toys; make sure the items are clean, stain free and in good condition. We no longer accept books or magazines.
During this Covid-19 Pandemic, and moving forward we are no longer taking any donations.
